Cronky Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Given that he was just about the most in-form striker in the league when he got injured, it would be madness to contemplate selling him. You can NAAHT be serious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well perhaps there was a period when statistically he was the most prolific striker, but that could have been said in the past of such luminaries as James Beattie and Mick Quinn. Anyway, it looks like he's up for sale for about £4m and so far, no takers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best has shown nothing but promise so far in his short PL career. You just dislike for the sake of it. Same with Coloccini. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 There's got to be motivational behind not rating someone with 6 goals in 10 starts. What more can you ask of a striker? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I wouldn't say it's motivational - he probably just doesn't rate him as a striker. It's all about personal preference at the end of the day. Best stepped up last season, when the majority had already wrote him off. I don't think we'll really know if he's consistently good enough at this level until he's played more games. As there's still some attributes to his general play that aren't that good. Still, you certainly can't fault his attitude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Best has the footwork of a lower division player so I can understand why people don't rate him. He looks positively clumsy at times. He does know where the goal is though and puts them away if the cameo from last season was anything to go by. I'd rather have him as a back up striker than Shola.
